FabSwingers.com forum: Having a problem ....

I've joined fab recently.

All my adult life I've been a monogomist. Never cheated on my partners. Got cheated on numerous times. Since being on fab and knowing you can have as many partners as possible/wanted it's intriguing. But I am struggling with the monogomist part of me that is saying it's wrong. I need to rewire the way I am thinking. Right ?? Any advice greatly appreciated.

"I've joined fab recently.

Monogamy is about being honest, respectful, and loving. It's about love and relationships not sex and erotic fun.

Since we've been swinging, we have both had sex with loads of people, but we've never cheated on each other. Instead, we have shared fun, sexy, erotic experiences with other people... together.

You just need to remember that the people you are meeting are not "partners", just acquaintances sharing your sexual experiences for mutual pleasure.

Finding the right person to share amazing sex is not easy

To a certain degree you have to have an emotional connection with the person

But it stops as soon as they leave

I get that

Well looking at your profile you will have no shortage of offers.

Just take your time and do what feels right and comfortable, doing this is all about your fun so make sure that's what it is. Good luck x

If we're going against years of cultural indoctrination that somehow forces us to believe in the fairytale monogamous marriage, with periods where sex itself was A taboo part of life, then it's understandable that we get internal conflicts when we want all the cookies.

My advice is to take small steps at your own pace and with partners who will treat you with absolute respect - so there's no unspoken support of that sort of casual sex equals bad rule.

We often change our beliefs incrementally, by having experiences that gnaw away at their foundations, letting them collapse of their own accord.

Taking committed decisions to do something with 100% is also a great way to get things to alter on the inside.

There's also our emotional self that's possibly exposed by this. I'd recommend spending time with friends who can spend time with you, where you can discuss how you are and get any support you may benefit from too.

Some good answers already here.

I have a friend on here who feels the same, I understand the dilemma as she struggles with it too.

I don't have an answer, just try your best not to do anything you will regret. Go into it sure it is what you want.

That's a very good way of putting it.

I have great friend supporting me and an amazing experienced "mentor" from fab. Just been dealing with this issue. I know I will get there. Thank you for your advice.

The problem with regular meets with the same people, is that it would be easier to start developing feelings. Igniting that fire which may burn you.

Personally if I was you, I would either go to a club where you'll meet different people each time... or look for new guys each time you want a meet.

But then it's what you want that matters, not what I think. You will certainly not be short of offers however you decide you want to play, AND if you have any fantasies you want to fulfill this is the place to do it.

Im sure you could have most men on here and women It seems your battle is with your self your morals built up over years.its about letting that go if its just sex you need treat it as that. yes there are emotions involved but some you need just to turn off

Having respect for yourself

Having morals

And standards is a must

The partner or partners you choose to be the same

May I suggest a few socials? You might start by going along to events organised and hosted by others and, later, maybe offer to host an event or two yourself with a friend and then alone. All the while your experience is increasing and you're meeting people and getting to know them in a no pressure setting. Enjoy taking your time and being in control of it.

Thank you

Thanks anyway

I had similar feelings, not that I couldn't be non-monogamous, but that it wasn't 'nice' to sleep around. So I decided I wanted only one or two guys and that would sort me.

Unfortunately Fab is full of men sending offers but still shy on enough quality men. Within about 9 months I met a guy and saw him for 18 months.

After I dumped him I then kept bemoaning, to a female Fab friend, how there were no men wanting regular. She said stop looking for it and just have fun, you're doing no one any harm.

I finally got over myself, stopped worrying if it would become regular and have a few regular friends now

And then guys from ages ago still come back

I'd say not to overthink your time on here. This is one of the upsides about not dating or being in a relationship.

My views on monogamy have changed massively since joining. It's been a bit of a journey. Like Kinky said, have fun and see where it goes...
